Features:

The plant grows vigorously, has dark green leaves, is relatively tolerant of low temperature and low light, and has strong stress resistance. Under normal climate conditions, the full growth period is about 88 days. The first female flowers bloom at about 8 nodes, and the female flowers are spaced 4 to 5 nodes apart. The melon is easy to sit and matures in about 28 days after setting (it takes about 35 days during the low temperature period in the greenhouse in early spring). A single melon weighs 6 to 8 kg. The fruit is round or short oval, with a green background and dark green strips on the skin. Bright red, the center sugar can reach 13%, the gradient is small, the meat is crispy, tender and juicy, the melon has a rich flavor, good palatability, the peel has good toughness and is not easy to be hollow or thick.

Suitable areas and seasons:

It is suitable for cultivation in greenhouses, small sheds and open fields in early spring in Henan, Shandong, Hebei, Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Anhui, Shanxi, Yunnan and other places. Protected land cultivation takes Zhengzhou, Liaocheng, and Handan as examples: those planted in spring greenhouses with "three films and one thatch" will be nursed from January 1st to 30th; those covered with a single layer of film in greenhouses will be nursed from February 5th to 25th; North China region For greenhouse planting in autumn, seedlings should be raised from June 20th to July 20th. Planting time and seedling age are for reference only. When planting in the open field, the climate in different places is very different, and the sowing time is different. When planting in the open field in spring, the suitable sowing date is generally when the local final frost has passed and the ground temperature is stable above 15掳C.

Main cultivation measures:

1. Strictly cultivate strong seedlings. It is appropriate to plant 600 to 800 plants per acre. Double or three-vine pruning, keep the third female flower on the main vine or the second female flower on the side vine. Be careful to avoid sitting on the melon at low temperature and low node position to avoid deformation or The phenomenon of thick skin and hollow;

2. Maintain good ventilation and light transmission conditions, and pay attention to turning the melons properly during the fruit expansion period to ensure consistent color change on the surface of the sweet potatoes;

3. The temperature during the fruiting period is low for a long time, and problems such as deformity, thick skin, and hollowness may occur. With careful management, two or three crops of melons can be left.

4. This variety requires the application of decomposed farmyard manure as base fertilizer, balanced fertilization of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and medium and trace elements;

5. Properly control water in the early stage of melon setting to prevent the melon seedlings from growing vigorously; during the flowering period, if it encounters rainy, low-temperature weather or when cultivating in protected areas, artificial pollination is required to increase the melon setting rate; during the fruit expansion period, strengthen water and fertilizer management to improve quality and Yield; when encountering particularly hot weather during the maturity period, pay attention to preventing premature plant aging and shading;

6. Repeated cropping plots require grafting cultivation, and it is recommended to use Robust No. 1 rootstock.

7. Pay attention to preventing and controlling pests and diseases throughout the growth period.
